Sweeties

The pondering is finally over. Fablet has a new Flavour of the Month.
After much deliberation, I decided it was time to dive straight back into childhood with a fruity blast of fun in the shape of Dolly Mixtures.
British readers won't need any introduction to these yummy little items, but for the benefit of our overseas chums - and those whose parents wouldn't let them near such brightly-coloured confectionery - here's what Wikipedia has to say about Dolly Mixtures:
"a Scottish confection produced for many years by different companies. The mixtures contain a variety of fondant shapes, such as cubes and cylinders in many colour combinations with subtle flavourings. The mixtures also include hard-coated fondants in "round edged cube" shapes and sugar coated jellies"
What Wikipedia singularly fails to note is that,
a) They're entirely delicious and utterly addictive, and
b) It's a flavour that works particularly well in tablet.
I pondered for a while over this one, as the previous blog entry noted. Was this flavour too silly? Too juvenile? Too fruity?
In the end, common sense prevailed and all such notions went out the window. It's too nothing, except too good to keep to myself.
So run on over to the Fablet webshop and buy some. You'll be instantly transported to those carefree days of childhood, thanks to a cunning combination of fruity sweetie flavour and the unbeatable yumminess of Fablet's scrumptious Scottish butter tablet. All the sugary fruity taste, but without any of those mildly unnerving colours.
